The Li people in southern Xinjiang.

late at night.

The Li soldiers patrolling the villages and patrol the villages and patrol the villages and patrol the various places patiently and meticulously as ever. After autumn, the weather became dryer, and the most important thing for patrolling at night was to beware of fires in the villages.

Fortunately, everything was normal, and the soldiers thought that tonight was another peaceful night as usual.

However, when they patrolled the important place in the village, before the cliff where the high priest of the Li tribe whom the man admired lived, they suddenly found that the guard who had been guarding the mountain road, always standing upright like a javelin, collapsed to the ground tonight without any movement.

The patrol soldier was shocked and rushed away. After exploring, his face calmed down.

The two guards had died silently!

"Damn it!" The patrol captain was angry, "An enemy sneaked into the village! You two, immediately notify the clan leader and at the same time send all the soldiers to alert you. The rest will follow me to go up the mountain to protect the High Priest!"

The soldiers knew that the situation was serious, and two of them agreed and immediately left. The others followed the patrol captain and climbed to the cliff where the high priest lived as quickly as possible.

Before the cave, the brazier was still burning quietly.

But the guards guarding the entrance of the cave disappeared!

The patrol captain's heart sank, and he was extremely anxious. He pulled out the scimitar from his waist and ordered, "Everyone enters the holy land with me, cheer up, pay attention to the enemy!" Unexpectedly, as soon as they approached the cave, a figure covered in a black robe in the dim light deep in the corridor flew over quickly.

The patrol captain immediately shouted, "Who is coming? Stop immediately, otherwise-" If the man's scolding of him was not heard, his speed increased instead of decreasing. Seeing this, the patrol captain immediately knew that the visitor was an enemy, not a friend, and quickly ordered: "Stop him, this person is the enemy!"

At the same time, he also waved his scimitar and saw that the man was cast and slashed down with one sword!

However, what he didn't expect was that the man had no way to avoid the Sin Ran Blade that everyone had cut down. The patrol captain frowned, and for some reason he felt an unknown premonition. Sure enough, when his sword was about to fall on the man, an invisible huge force suddenly burst out from the other party's body. When the blade touched it, it was completely unable to compete!

The patrol captain was shocked, and then he was shocked by the huge force and his body flew backwards onto the stone wall next to him. When he endured the severe pain, the man had already knocked the patrol soldiers into falling flowers and flowing water, flew out of the cave, and disappeared into the night in an instant.

The patrol captain chased after a few steps, suddenly remembered something again, and exclaimed: "Oh no, Lord High Priest!"

Worried about the safety of the high priest, he didn't care about tracking the enemy, turned his head and ran towards the depths of the cave.

A moment later, dense torches surrounded the Li clan leader, a strong middle-aged barbarian warrior, and came to the high priest. After emergency rescue, although the high priest was seriously injured and weak, he finally saved his life. The clan leader half-kneeled and bowed, and his expression was respectful and could not hide his worry: "Your Excellency, who did sneak into the village to slander you?"

The old priest looked pale and anxious. His thin palm grabbed the patriarch's shoulder: "It's Heimu! The Lich Heimu betrayed the witches. He lurked in and attacked me and took away the sacred objects of the Li clan! Hurry, send the most elite warriors to inform others to guard against Heimu. He must not let him take away all the sacred objects of the five clans!"

The clan leader was shocked at first, but he did not expect that the holy objects that had been passed down in the clan for many years were taken away by Heimu.

The old priest's subsequent words made the clan leader hesitate: "Your Excellency, will all tribes send people to inform?" The five major tribes in southern Xinjiang have never been harmonious with each other.

The old priest heard the clan leader's implication and sighed: "The holy objects of our five tribes are related to a disaster that endangers the world, so the Heimu conspiracy must not be successful! This matter is more than anything, so no matter which tribe it is, it must be notified as soon as possible!"

The patriarch took a deep breath, but did not argue, but simply responded: "Yes, Your Excellency, I will send someone to complete your order!"

In the vast mountains and forests, there is a hidden cave.

The figure covered in black robe moved quickly and soon arrived in front of a secret room deep in the cave. The man in black robe groped somewhere in the rock wall for a moment. With the heavy sound of the bullet, the rock wall rose, revealing a half-person high stone platform in the secret room.

The man in black robe walked into it.

On the stone platform, there were five protruding supporting discs, two of which were placed on two strange objects. They were of different shapes, but they had the same charm. Their materials were difficult to understand, like jade and bones, and they emitted a faint white light when no one touched them.

The man in black robe lifted his cloak and revealed his face.

It turned out that he had just attacked the Li clan's high priest and took away the sacred object from the other party!

Heimu's eyes stayed on the two strange objects in the stone platform for a while, then waved his sleeves, and there was an item like the strange objects in the stone platform on his spreading palm, which was the sacred object of the Li tribe! He gently placed the sacred object on the third disk supported by the sacred object, and then stared at them quietly, falling into deep thought.

Long time.

A faintly whispered to himself came from the darkness, which was an excited tone, but also a strong self-depression. Finally, he turned into a faint sigh: "The third thing is not long, Empress!"

Rumble - The stone door fell and the secret room was closed.

As soon as Heimu left the cave, he suddenly stopped feeling aware and said to the empty place: "Get out."

The wind suddenly blew up in the open space in the distance, and a demonic aura came.

Heimu remained silent.

After the wind passed, the demonic energy dissipated, revealing a tall and thin human figure. Heimu looked at him, frowned slightly, and said dissatisfiedly: "Li Snake, why did he come back so long?" Under the dim moonlight, the tall and thin figure showed his true body, and it turned out to be a beast monster with a snake head and human body!

"Hiss~"

The beast monster, Li Snake, seemed to be a deep voice, and seemed to be even more angry than Hei Mu.

I don’t know how Heimu understood the meaning of Li Snake’s hissing, and a sneer appeared on his face: “What you said is not important, isn’t it? What’s important is, have you retrieved the things?”

Li Snake's vertical pupils stared at Hei Mu coldly, as if he would launch a fatal attack in the next moment.

The atmosphere between the two seemed to be stagnant, making people breathless.

"Hiss~" Li Snake hissed again.

Hei Mu smiled disdainfully, but he did not make any more excitement. Although he was not afraid of the beast monster Li Snake, it would be too stupid to cause a fight just for a moment. However, Li Snake was very satisfied with Hei Mu's silence, and then henked in a low voice. Then he bent down, opened his ferocious giant mouth, wriggled between his chest and abdomen, and then spit out something "wow".

Hei Mu waved his sleeves and held up the item with his witch power. A strange color flashed in his eyes and murmured: "The fourth one is here." Judging from its shape, it was exactly the same as the holy objects of the Gaoshan tribe!

——

Huqishan.

On the pavilion under the moon, the woman was wearing white clothes, leaning lazily against the pillars, holding the white jade-like palms to explore the mellow wine, her complexion was red, and she looked up at the bright moon charmingly and slightly drunk.

This scene is like a wonderful painting.

"sorry."

Behind her, there was a middle-aged scholar who had a graceful and noble character, but her expression was a little complicated at this moment. With all the emotions, it turned into three words that people in the world thought he would never say.

The woman was not surprised by his appearance at all.

She did not answer immediately, but moved her hand and lifted the jar of wine, and raised her head and drank with a heroic movement that was different from her charming and beautiful temperament. Because she was a little anxious, the clear wine overflowed from her sandalwood mouth, slid down the corner of her mouth, and her chin fell through her crystal-clear neck, presenting a seductive picture of a beautiful woman drunk.

"Haha, why did you say this suddenly?" the woman said indifferently.

The middle-aged scholar walked a few steps forward, walked a few steps away from the woman, stood on the railing, and looked at the bright moon in the distance.

"There are many reasons." The middle-aged scribe sighed.

However, when he said something, he found that it seemed that it was meaningless to say this. So he was silent for a while and said, "I should have come to see you earlier, but because of some common things, I was unable to take time out in time. I would like to give you more careless things!"

The woman's expression changed instantly, but he was not allowed to see it.

As a heavenly fox that is rare in thousands of years, her perception is extremely sharp. His words instantly reminded her of the deep-burned aura she felt when she stepped on Mount Huqi again, making her terrifying and shocked!

"I didn't know you were trapped in the Burning Incense Valley, and even thought that you were all dead." The middle-aged scribe said sincerely, "If I had known this, I would definitely find a way to rescue you."

"Hahaha~" the woman smiled freely, and the misty eyes seemed to contain the starlight of the entire night sky. "You don't have to say these words, but I should thank you for taking care of Xiaochi. She is stupid and kind. If she didn't take care of her, she would probably suffer a lot."

The middle-aged scribe was silent.

The woman turned her head and looked at him, and said, "You said that just now, is it for her? In fact, there is no need to do so, everything has passed--"

"No!" The middle-aged scholar's emotional fluctuations were extremely rare, and his eyes were filled with cold murderous intent, "This matter will never pass, forever!"

The woman was stunned for a moment, as if she understood something, and sighed silently.

Then he nodded, and said nothing, raised his hand and raised his wine jar, raised his head and drank again.

After another silence, the middle-aged scholar probably felt that everything he should have said was finished, and said, "You are Xiao Chi's relative, Hu Qi Mountain is your former residence, and our Ghost King Sect will always welcome you. You can live here as long as you want. No matter what you need, you can tell me."

After pausing, the middle-aged scholar said again: "If I am not here, I can also tell Biyao, and she can make decisions."

The woman smiled and nodded without refusing.

"You have a good daughter, she looks very much like you."

When the middle-aged scholar saw her mentioning Biyao, his serious face suddenly soothed, and even a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. The cold murderous intent on his body disappeared, and he said with emotion and relief: "Actually, Biyao thought of her mother before, and then gradually changed after taking over the affairs of the Ghost King Sect."

The woman's expression moved slightly and suddenly said, "It has something to do with that Qingyun disciple?"

The smile on the middle-aged scholar's face stopped and it calmed down again.

Seeing this, the woman smiled, and did not ask, but said, "I have been with her for a long time. At this point, she is quite similar to my stupid sister - what are you going to do?"

The middle-aged scholar said lightly: "It's just an impulse of ignorance in youth. After a long time, she will see the other person's face clearly and then she will figure it out."

The woman chuckled and shook her head slightly: "Do you believe what you said?"

This time, without waiting for his answer, the woman changed the topic: "Well, then what do you think of the person from Qingyun Sect?"

The middle-aged scholar sneered and said disdainfully: "Relying on his talent, he is just a arrogant person who thinks he is self-righteous!" The woman raised her eyebrows, but did not argue with him, but said lightly: "I will leave Huqi Mountain in a few days."

The middle-aged scribe couldn't help but be surprised, then frowned slightly and said, "You can trust us."

The woman waved her hand and said, "You misunderstood. After passing through the Fenxiang Valley, many things are no longer important to me. Especially after seeing Xiaoliu, I have no regrets anymore. The only thing I want is to enjoy the time and go around the vast land of China and take a look."

The middle-aged scribe frowned and said nothing.

The woman smiled and said, "As you said before, Biyao is my relative, Huqi Mountain is my hometown, I will regard it as my home and come back from time to time."

The middle-aged scholar nodded and said, "You are the only remaining relatives of Biyao except me. I can see that she attaches great importance to you."

The woman smiled and nodded, and said softly: "I'm the same."

"Well," said the middle-aged literati, "It's late at night, you can rest earlier, and I will say goodbye."

The woman nodded, and wanted to speak but stopped. The middle-aged scholar stopped and said in confusion: "What?" The woman smiled sweetly and said: "It's nothing, see you again."

The middle-aged literati looked slightly moved, as if he realized something, but he didn't say much, nodded and left.

After he left, the woman's beautiful face showed a faint sadness. - What exactly is the thing at the foot of Huqi Mountain? It made her feel like facing natural enemies. And Bi Yao, did she know about this?

The woman sighed, shook her head, and shook the wine jar.

The wine in the jar shook lightly, and before she knew it, there was only a little left in the jar of wine. She lifted it up again, raised her head and drank it all in one go.

——I didn’t expect that as soon as I got out, there were such things that made people upset!

The bright moon is bright, and the shadow of the osmanthus tree is clearly visible on the clean jade plate.

The woman looked at the bright moon, and her charming eyes flashed with a lazy smile on her face - but although it was all troublesome, it was nothing to think about it carefully. It would be better to have concerns and worries than to be alone and independent?
